Welcome to
Melbourne Nutrition Services
At Melbourne Nutrition Services, we specialise in personalised nutrition care for people with unique health and performance needs — from those preparing for or recovering after bariatric surgery, to bariathletes striving to fuel their training, to individuals managing lipoedema, and to endurance athletes pushing their limits.
We also provide nutrition advice for many common health concerns like diabetes, elevated cholesterol, IBS and the low FODMAP diet, managing adequate nutrition while on GLP-1 medications and menopause.
With expert, evidence-based guidance, our goal is to help you feel stronger, more energised, and more confident in your body. Whether you’re seeking better health, improved performance, or support with a lifelong condition, we’ll create a tailored strategy that works for you and your lifestyle.
Bariatric Surgery
Emily is passionate about helping her bariatric clients feel confident with their nutrition before and after surgery. She provides clear, practical guidance on choosing the right vitamins and supplements, meeting protein goals, and building healthy habits for long-term success. With a focus on nurturing a healthy relationship with food, Emily makes navigating bariatric nutrition simple and sustainable.
Bariathletes
Many post-bariatric patients discover (or re-discover) a love of exercise. When increased fitness leads to setting goals like finishing a half marathon or competing in an olympic lifting competition, moving the focus away from weight loss and towards a performance driven outcome is incredibly exciting and powerful! However, fuelling and hydrating with limited capacity can be challenging. With the right support, anything is possible!
Endurance Nutrition
If you’re preparing for an endurance event, no doubt you are spending many precious hours each week training hard. Why not make all that hard work pay off with a tailored nutrition plan for training and racing? Emily will assess your current diet, identify any nutritional gaps and develop a practical strategy that supports energy needs, enhances performance and promotes recovery. With her nutrition expertise and racing experience, Emily ensures you're fueling your body appropriately before, during, and after workouts which helps you to train harder, race smarter, and recover faster. Emily can also assist with a carb loading strategy and nutrition race plan for the big day.
Lipoedema
Nutrition strategies for lipoedema involve reducing inflammation, helping to prevent lipoedema progression, protecting and building muscle mass and weight management. Emily’s approach focuses on nurturing a healthy relationship with food, which may understandably have been damaged after many years of dieting and not feeling listened to. There is no right or wrong way for every person with lipoedema to eat - Emily will work with her patients to find the most appropriate way forward together.
General Nutrition
Our team can help you make sense of nutrition and create a plan that truly works for you. Whether you want to eat more balanced meals, manage your weight, prevent muscle wasting while on GLP-1 medication, boost your energy, reduce your cholesterol, blood pressure or blood sugar, say goodbye to the dieting merry-go-round and improve your relationship with food or simply feel better in your body, we provide practical, evidence-based support tailored to your lifestyle and goals. Rather than following fad diets or confusing online advice, you’ll learn how to make sustainable choices that fit your routine and preferences. Healthy eating should feel easy and enjoyable, not restrictive.
